Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of measuring electric brain activity and more specifically to the positioning of electrodes on a user's scalp for this purpose.
  • EEG electroencephalography
  • the main challenge in applying EEG electrodes is to get a low impedance contact to the scalp.
  • this is normally done with an elastic cap with integrated Ag/AgCl coated metal cups.
  • the skin underneath these cups is usually prepared by degreasing and often additional abrasion, i.e. removal of the dry top layer of the scalp.
  • the cups are filled afterwards with gel. This assures a low ohmic contact to the deeper skin layer and a 'conversion' from ionic current in the body to electron current in the measuring system.
  • Using conductive gel also partly solves the problem of the varying distance between the metal contact and the skin due to the variation from person to person of the hair layer thickness.
  • WO 00/45701 discloses such a 'dry' electrode solution. It discloses a headgear, which includes a front forehead pad, a base strap assembly connected to the front forehead pad, a plurality of EEG electrode locators for receiving EEG electrodes, and a plurality of locator straps connected to the front pad of material, the base trap assembly, and to the plurality of EEG electrode locators for accurately positioning the plurality of EEG electrode locators positioned relative to the scalp of a user.
  • a visor can be attached to the front pad of material, and the base strap assembly may include an occipital locator device.
  • a plunger assembly with spreadable fingers for optionally parting the hair of the user's scalp is also provided that is inserted in the electrode locators to optionally prepare the user's scalp and to seat the electrodes.
  • the headgear according to this publication requires that a user pushes each plunger assembly into contact with the scalp. So, the user needs to re-set the plunger assemblies to the initial positions every time the headgear is taken on and off.
  • Document JP2001340312 discloses a device for positioning a plurality of dry electrodes in contact with the user's scalp.
  • a device for positioning a plurality of dry electrodes on a user's scalp for measuring electric brain activity, which comprises:
  • the elastic element is an elastic band.
  • the unit can also be described by the term "housing”, and is a headpiece of a headphone.
  • the plurality of electrodes is mounted on flexible surfaces. This allows the individual electrodes to move in a flexible way in different directions. In case that the plurality of electrodes is divided in multiple arrays, the electrodes are enabled to follow the curvature of the scalp in order to make the required contact with the scalp involving as many electrodes as possible.
  • the housing may have the shape of a headband and be of firm material. It is a headpiece of a headphones device.
  • the positioning arrangement further comprises a positioning strap at the inner side of the elastic band, which is fixed to a plurality of the flexible surfaces.
  • the positioning strap comprising openings through which the electrodes protrude when the elastic band(s) exert pressure on the electrodes, once the housing is put around the user's head.
  • the positions of the electrodes on the scalp are defined reliably and can be located as close as possible to the positions defined by the International 10/20 System that is well known in the art as the standard for positioning of EEG Electrodes.
  • the weight of the housing defines largely the 'stress' in the positioning strap but has no influence on the pressure of the electrodes on the scalp. This force is set to a comfortable level by the separate elastic band running over the flexible surfaces, whereon the electrodes are mounted.
  • the positioning arrangement comprises two projection elements for projecting the ends of the positioning strap against the auricles of the user, when the housing is put around the user's head. In this way, the ears may be used as mechanical reference via the headphones.
  • the positioning strap may be divided in multiple parts, which are mutually connected by one or more elastic connectors.
  • the flexible surfaces wherein the electrodes are embedded may be low viscosity rubber pads, which is a very suitable option for this purpose.
  • metal foil may be used for the electrical connection of the electrodes of the arrays.
  • An alternative solution for the electrical connection is the use of electrically conductive rubber.
  • the electrodes are metal pins with rounded ends to be in contact with the scalp.
  • the rounded ends facilitates an easy passing of the pins through hair bundles to the skin (scalp) and help to give hair in between the pin and the skin the freedom to 'roll' away. With this shape there is also no irritation which may occur with sharp edges, used in prior art dry electrode devices. Due to the (low) pressure of the pins onto the relatively soft skin the contact area around the end increases. This lowers the contact resistance even further.
  • the length of the electrodes is larger than 4 mm and smaller than 7 mm. In this way, the structure is largely insensitive to thicker hair layers. This is a 'comb or brush' principle.
  • the metal pin electrodes may be gold plated to assure an inert interface to the skin without possible corrosion problems due to the salt from the sweat, which furthermore is well cleanable. Gold is (like e.g. platinum) also non allergic.
  • Other contact materials that are suitable as contact materials are carbon and several conductive polymers. Other metals like nickel, chromium and copper are less suitable because of health risks.
  • Presently used contact materials for electrodes for measuring brain activity such as silver with silver chloride coating and tin, although in principle usable for this purpose, may have corrosion problems after some time. Materials like stainless steel and aluminum have a natural oxide layer that reduces the conductivity to the skin. Ion containing polymers or ceramics, although in principle usable for this purpose, may lose their conductivity over time and due to cleaning.
  • FIG. 1 shows a device 1 for positioning electrodes on a user's scalp for measuring electric brain activity according to a first exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
  • the device is a headphones comprising a headpiece 3 (also referred to in this description by “unit” or “housing”), made of firm but flexible material and having the shape of a headband, and earpieces 5.
  • the device furthermore comprises a positioning arrangement consisting of two projection elements 7 and a positioning strap 13.
  • the projection elements 7 are used for positioning a plurality of arrays 9 of electrodes (also referred to in this description by 'dry electrode structure') embedded in flexible surfaces 10, elastic elements (bands) 11 and the positioning strap 13 at the inner side of the housing 3.
  • the two projection elements 7 project the ends of the positioning strap 13 against the auricles 14 of the user, when the housing is put around the user's head. At the inner side of the positioning strap small springs 16 are placed. The ends of the elastic bands 11 are also fixed to the projection elements 7 close to the points at which the ends of the positioning strap 13 are fixed to the projection elements 7.
  • the positioning strap 13 is used for positioning the arrays of electrodes at predefined positions on the scalp. It is fixed to the plurality of the flexible surfaces 10 by means of fixations 15, as shown in figures 2 and 3 . It comprises openings 17 with a diameter of approximately 15 mm through which the electrodes of the arrays 9 protrude when the elastic bands 11 exert pressure on the electrodes.
  • the positioning strap 13 is divided in two halves with a connecting elastic band 19 between them to guarantee good mechanical contact to the scalp all over the circumference.
  • the reference electrode position of two of the arrays of electrodes is set by the spring loaded fixation point of the two halves of the positioning strap as close as possible to the T3/T4 locations of the International 10/20 System.
  • the two halves of the positioning strap have the ears as mechanical reference via the main headphone-clamp
  • the sense electrode arrays positioned at C3 and C4 according to the International 10/20 System (according to which C3-C4 refer to central sites for picking up the activity in the posterior regions of head) are fixed at the other ends of both of the positioning strap parts. In this way all electrode arrays are positioned in their right places in one simple action by just putting on the headphones in the usual way by the user.
  • the elastic bands 11 press the arrays of electrodes on the user's scalp, resulting in an effective contact of the electrodes to the scalp.
  • An eventually additional (active) body ground electrode normally a wrist (-strap) electrode, could be added in the middle on top of the head (EEG Cz location).
  • the body ground electrode is typically used in amplifiers for biosignal measuring to improve the signal quality.
  • Cabling and electronics which may be integrated in the headphones or in an external device, are not depicted in figures 1-3 .
  • the electrodes 20 are gold plated metal pins with a diameter of approximately 1mm and placed at a distance to each other of 2.5mm between their central axes.
  • the pins have rounded (half spheres) ends 21. They are embedded in the flexible surface, a rubber pad, which is made of 2mm thick, low viscosity, silicone rubber. This enables the structure to follow the curvature of the scalp 23 in order to make required contact with the skin involving as many pins as possible, as shown in figure 5 .
  • the pin length of the part of the pins not embedded in the rubber pad is approximately 5mm.
  • the pins are electrically connected to each other and to the cable 25 connecting to the electronic circuitry by means of a thin metal foil 27, for example of copper.
  • the total array construction is covered with a thin metal foil 29 which is connected to the active shield of the cable 10.
  • conductive rubber may be used as a base for the electrodes.
  • FIG. 8-9 a second exemplary embodiment is described of a device 1 for positioning electrodes on a user's scalp for measuring electric brain activity.
  • the second exemplary embodiment assumes independent mounting of the arrays of electrodes 9 on the headpiece.
  • the positioning of four arrays of electrodes 9 is depicted in figure 8 .
  • the mounting arrangement 30 of one of them is depicted detailed and enlarged in figure 9 .
  • a firm (plastic) housing 3 having the shape of a headband similar to a typical design of a headpiece for a normal headphones device is used as a support.
  • the flexible dry electrode structure is attached to the projection elements by means of elastic bands that can be made of e.g., rubber or textile.
  • the flexible surface used for electrode mounting can be an elastic pad on which the flexible dry electrode structure is positioned, similar to the embodiment depicted in figures 1-3 .
  • This elastic pad is affixed to the elastic band connected to the two projection elements 7.
  • the mounting is implemented by means of two elastic bands 31, each connecting one side of the flexible dry electrode structure to the projection elements 7 as depicted in figure 9 . So, in this case the flexible surface 10 (elastic pad) is mounted between the two elastic bands 31.
  • the mounting of the second (pair of) elastic band(s) can be done the same way as for the first pair.
  • the embodiment that includes cylindrical projection element has radial elastic bands that support the dry electrode structure. Furthermore, an elastic element of an elliptic shape mounted at the bottom part of the cylindrical projection element can be used instead of elastic bands to hold the dry electrode structure.
  • the device may be something else than a headphones for example a (Alice) band, cap, helmet, glasses, etc.
  • the electrodes can also be used for measuring ECG, EMG and EOG.
